Very well written, Sam.

I used to lust for the RX myself in my teens and was extremely envoius of my friends who owned it but pops would never write a cheque for anything with two wheels and a motor :( Loved the classic black and chrome one. Silver one is the next best favorite. Hated the chumps who would modify the silencer to produce a stupid rickshaw-like sound.

What a wonderful write up Sam! Yours is one of the few posts in Team_BHP that i enjoy reading again and again.

Imagine, 20,000 members atleast 5,000 Kids! Man, you making serious profitlol:

Nice idea. Sam, you want to take up on this business proposition? :D

Author material...I have had my share of reading and if you ever were to write a book, I will buy it.

Thanks Sam, that made a great read. I'm one of those who had an RX in college in the early 90s – a red one, later painted black. It was the bike to be seen on in those days. It never seized a piston or blew a gasket in all the six years I lived on it – I can't say the same about the Bullets I've owned...

Ah! The owners and ex-owners of RX would feel moved by reading this, just like I am right now. It was a beauty and a beast. Well, those were the days.

Great write-up Yeti!

Fantastic! And I can relate to this tale having ridden around on a RX-100 for a few months after completing my 10th standard! What fun!

P.S. I remember you owned a CBR too at one point of time. Any memoirs of that?

Sam bhai,

can relate to your story on RX 100, I had the pleasure of owning two of them and I regret of selling the second one just 4 yrs back :Frustrati.

However, I don't intend to sell the RX 135 2 Stroke, 4 Gear cousin of RX 100, though it can't match closely to its earlier generation. Its a pleasure to ride even now on RX, though I get warnings all around that I should not ride the bike 40+ KM Speed at this age lol:, but who cares, once in a while ripping her to 80+ is a pure pleasure IMO
